1. open terminal – (for this tutorial, I am using puTTY from Windows 7 to Ubuntu 10.04)
2. install cvs
3. install cvsd
4. check ‘myrepos’ directory in /var/lib/cvsd
5. initial the directory
sudo cvs -d /var/lib/cvsd/myrepos init
6. modify the file /var/lib/cvsd/myrepos/CVSROOT/config
sudo vi /var/lib/cvsd/myrepos/CVSROOT/config
add the line into it:
SystemAuth=no PamAuth=no LockDir=/tmp/myrepos
save and exit vi
7. create LockDir directory
sudo mkdir /var/lib/cvsd/tmp/myrepos
8. add user and define your password – I created a user named ‘faizal’ with ‘password’
sudo cvsd-passwd /var/lib/cvsd/myrepos faizal
9. edit cvsd.conf file and save it
sudo vi /etc/cvsd/cvsd.conf
go to end of line and change this part
Listen 127.0.0.1 2401
if you are connected through LAN, change from 127.0.0.1 to 0.0.0.0
10. change ownership with recursive for /var/lib/cvsd directory
sudo chown -R cvsd:cvsd /var/lib/cvsd
11. restart cvsd and check status
12. test your cvs connection from localhost
13. test your cvs server from different machine in the same network
14. finish – yeay!
